2013 World MMA Awards nominees announced

The ballots for the Oscars of MMA
have been released and fighter of 2013 is going
to be hard to decide.

Chris Weidman, Demetrious Johnson, Vitor Belfort, Cain Velasquez
and Urijah Faber are the nominees for the Charles
“Mask” Lewis Fighter Of The Year honor at the sixth
annual Fighters Only World Mixed Martial Arts Awards.

Weidman beat the greatest UFC fighter of all time, Anderson
Silva, not once, but twice. “Mighty Mouse” Johnson went
3-0 in UFC flyweight title defenses, establishing himself as one of
the most dominant champions in the company. Belfort won three
times, all by knockout in main-event fights. And Velasquez defended
his UFC heavyweight title twice and Faber was 4-0.

No matter who comes away with the trophy Feb. 7 at the Venetian
in Las Vegas, the winner will be a deserving one. Fans can vote
through the end of the month at the
World MMA Awards website.
